Big Bad Blog Video Theater-Elise Reed vs Cory McKenna

Here's the match video of Elise Reed vs Cory McKenna from yesterday's UFC show in London. This fight is at Strawweight. Elise fought for Cage Fury before losing her UFC debut at Flyweight. We'll see if she does better at her natural weight. She trains at Kickside in Princeton, NJ. Cory is 22 years old from Wales. She trains at Team Alpha Male in Sacramento. She was on the Contender's Series and won her UFC debut. She had surgery on a torn ligament in her ankle. Fighting at home hyped up Molly McCann. It had the opposite effect on Cory. She seemed to have the UFC jitters. And it's not like Elise is all that effective. She's a striker but nothing special. And she's awful on the ground. But Cory couldn't get her act together until round three. So I scored the first two rounds 10-9 for Elise and the third round 10-9 for Cory. 29-28 for Elise. Two of the judges scored it the same. But the third judge, UFC regular Derek Cleary, scored it 30-27 for Cory. I don't know what he was watching. Elise wins by split decision. Enjoy the video!
